On Wednesday we were up at the crack of dawn and leaving the house at 4.30am, on arrival at the Power Dam we set up the gear to the sound of crashing fish and cast out, my lead hit the bottom and immediately went off in my hand.....no waiting there then. Fish came thick and fast in the morning but action slowed down by around 11am as the sun came up and the air temp reached a very muggy 34 degrees, with no fish in the last 3 hours we decided to pack up at 6pm. Total catch for the day was 16 fish..................9 for Joe and 7 for me but the weights were impressive being 21.12, 22.6, 24.8, 25, 25.2, 26.8, 29.4 plus 9 mid doubles. No fishing now until saturday or sunday but we are going out in the boat to feed a new swim for a couple of days, the water is deep and hopefully will hold some big fishies.
On a non-fishing note, the Boston Bruins have just beaten the Vancouver Canucks to win the Stanley Cup in ice hockey after a seventh game decider in Vancouver, this didn't go down well with the thousands watching on big screens in the streets as riots followed with cars overturned and set on fire, 3 people stabbed, shops looted, and major damaged committed. All in the name of sport.
